Pet care experience

Barbies Pawsome playdates.

From watching dogs since I was about eight years old to caring for senior dogs, dogs in heat, big dogs, and small dogs. And now also being able to share this experience with my dog loving daughter has been such a blessing and even helps us bond. My pet care experience is truly diverse and extensive. My passion and dedication shine through in the way I try to provide love and attention to all pups, making sure their tails wag with joy and comfort. My journey in pet care reflects a deep understanding of dogs' needs and a commitment to their well-being, creating a safe and happy environment for every furry friend I welcome into my care.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 25, 2026

Barbara was very accommodating about drop off times when our plans changed. Our dog didn't get along with her 2 small dogs, so she kept them separated and even slept downstairs with our dog. She has a fenced yard, which I am sure that our dog appreciated.

Beautiful home. Beautiful location. Dog friendly house. We were grateful she responded in such a short notice. I felt very comfortable knowing my dogs were taken care of and we will definitely be using her again in the near future.

Barb is a great dog sitter. She is very accommodating and responsive. My pets loved being with her family and she was sure to send pics and updates every day. I will definitely be using her again for day care and overnight stays.

A typical day

From greeting wagging tails in the morning to tucking sleepy pups in at night, a day with me is a whirlwind of furry fun! As a dedicated pet care provider, I start the day with belly rubs and breakfast, ensuring each pup feels at home. Throughout the day, I manage playtime, walks, and cuddles, catering to the unique needs of senior dogs, those in heat, big dogs, and little ones alike.

From ensuring anxious pet parents receive daily updates and photos to accommodating special requests for their furry companions, My dedication to providing peace of mind shines through. By offering a personalized approach and open communication, I create a trusting relationship with dog parents, making them feel confident and secure when leaving their beloved pups in my care. My commitment to meeting both the dogs' and their parents' needs sets me apart as a caring and reliable pet caregiver.
